Answer:


radius=2√(6)

Explanation:


AB^2\:+\:BC^2\:=AC^2


AB^2\:+\:5^2\:=7^2


AB^2\:+\:25\:=49


AB^2\:=24


AB=√(24)=√(4*6)=2√(6)

Answer:

r = 2
√(6)

Explanation:

the radius r of the circle is AB

the angle between a tangent and the radius at the point of contact = 90°

then Δ Abc is a right triangle

using Pythagoras' identity

AB² + BC² = AC² ( substitute values )

AB² + 5² = 7²

AB² + 25 = 49 ( subtract 25 from both sides )

AB² = 24 ( take square root of both sides )

AB =
√(24) =
√(4(6)) =
√(4) ×
√(6) = 2
√(6)
